Former SEC football players participating in the Pro Bowl

Now that the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots qualified for the Super Bowl, the final NFL Pro Bowl rosters are out. As expected, SEC football is well-represented.

Out of 113 total players (including injury replacements), the SEC is sending 29 players. That’s more than a quarter of the talent. In all, 10 of the 14 schools are represented.

The 2017 Pro Bowl is scheduled for Saturday, with a kickoff after 8 p.m. ET from the Orlando Citrus Bowl.

Unsurprisingly, Alabama and LSU lead the conference with 5 players each in the game. Florida is right behind with 4 players. Shockingly, Auburn will not send a single player to the Pro Bowl. Neither will Kentucky, Missouri and Ole Miss.

It’s no surprise that the SEC sent 5 defensive ends to the Pro Bowl — the conference is known for defense. However, the conference also sent 6 wide receivers, most of any position group. Dak Prescott was the only quarterback from the conference who will appear in the game.

Players from the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots will not play in the NFL all-star game. Those teams meet in Super Bowl LI on Feb. 5.
